4 Good Book.

The hard working man Of these
days, has not the time to read, nor the
money to buy the vast number OF
standard works now i'll general use
and every day quoted. What ne wants
is the choicest passages from this le-
gicn Of books, culled out and publish
ed in book form, convenient for refer
ence, that he may familiarize himself
with the authors without wadlns
through their yoluminous works.
"Master Thoughts of Master Minds,
the title of book sold by Mr.. S. j.
Blackwell III this county and State
supplies this want. It is filed up
with select passages from all the grand
authors from Dante's Inferno down to
Tennyson's "In Memoriam,' conven-
iently arranged for every day use, and
has in addition thereto a chronology
cal table giving the date of the birth
and death of all the great men in liter
ature. It is good book for every
household. Give Mr.. Blackwell your
orders.

He roams among the ignorant negroes
Of Jordan and the Santee section, tell
ine them the most absura stories.
One of bis prophecies is that there IS
to lie 4 famine two years hence, and
that 8 dollar in gold wont be worth
two quarts OF corn. Jones tells his
people that his Jesus has commission
ed him to select twelve of the sisters
of the church to be his disciples and
follow him through the world. He
has already procured one convert who
accompanies him on his rounds, Our
informant says that a great many OF
the negroes are believing Jones, and
growing wild over his predictions.
The officers of the law should give
their attention to Jones, and if he IS
insane he should be sent to the Luna
tic Asylum. otherwise, the citizens OF
Jordan and Santee would not act
amiss in ridding themselves OF this
nuisance.

To arms, Gentlemen

An enthusiastic meeting for the
purpose of organizing military COM
pany in Manning, was held last Fri
day evening in the TINES building. A
good crowd of young men were pres,
ent, all brim full Of military ambition.
From the eager spirit displayed there
eau be no doubt but that Manning
Will soon have military company to
boast of. Some good work was done
towards efecting the organization,
speeches breathing patriotism and
military glory were made, and the
commissioned officers elected. How
ever, the gentlemen elected have since
resigned giving as their reason that it
was not generally known there would
be an election of officers, and that the
choice of officers made might not
meet the approval of others who are
to join the company. At another
meeting appointed for this evening,
the entire list of officers are to be
elected. They are captain, first
and second lieutenant, -four sergeants,
four corporals, and color bearer.
All those who have an interest are ex-
pect to join the company, are expect
ed to be present this evening.

A Strange Attachment.

A hog on the premises OF Mr.. D. Z.
Hodge, of the Fork of Black River,
has exhibited the gstrangest OF pas
sions toward number Of young pups
that have been deserted by their
. mother. Attracted by the distressed
sries of the pups, mother hog went
among them with consolatory grunts
and soothing nose caresses. She Kept
this up till the pups became accustom-
ed to her presence, then gently laying
down, with her feet she dragged the
pups to the nursing bottle. The ! pups
at first were inclined to make of but
at Last the little fellows took on to
mother hog, and now they nurse at
her bottle, follow her all the time and
are protected by her motherly care
from the cold at night.
This is an unparalleled instance OF
attachment in the history Of hogs. Its
f-ath is vouched for BY MIR. D. Z.
Hodge.

That Entertainment!

1t was expected to be grand affair.
Prof, Potts aud troupe were extensive
" advertised with flaming hand bills
to entertain the people Of Manning
and country with u multitude Of tricks
slight of hand, etc, marvellous to be-
hold, and acting rivaliug the celebratr
ed Booth in Shakespeare's Julius
Caesar" There was no little eclat
about the thing. Prof. Potts bad
most generously allowed the Manning
militia to share with him the proceeds
OF the door. Then the militia took
hold of the thing. Various commit
tees were appointed to advertise Prot,
Potts and Lls big show. Well, the
time came; and owing to the exertions
of the committees large expectant
crowd had assembled. Prot. Potts,
after considerable delay-excusable
in so great man-mounted a rlckety
stage with variety calico screen. All
eyes were wide open to see what the
great Prof. would do. The Prot with
imperturbable gravity proceeded with
the "choice programme" 1t was not
lung before people began to move
nervously in their seats, and restlessly
yawr. But Prof. Potts continued the
''choice programme" which about
this time was generally pronounced a
complete humbug. At last, when pa
tience was about exhausted, some one
yelled committee" This was nap
py hit and until the "choice pro-
gramme" was concluded the name OF
s;committee" was greeted with frequent
bursts of applause. The committee
conspicuous on q front row, sat blush
ing to like the rose, till they were
fortunately relieved by Prof: Potts
reaching the end OF the "cholce pro-
gramme.
The affair was a wholesale sell and
Prof. Potts, and the choice pro-
gramme," thrown in, declared fraud.

Turnip Raising.
necessary

We are indebted to Mr.. Joseph
Sprott, Sr., for bag Of fine Rutabaga
and Cowhorn turnips, An average
size turnip of each kind was selected
and weighed. The cowhorn balanced
the scales at 5 1-2 pounds, and the
rutabaga at 4 pounds and ten ounces.
Mr.. Sprott says he made 81 bushels
of rutabagas on a piece of ground
measuring "a and a half fcompasses by
10 and half. At this rate, the COM
passes being 5 feet, the size OF Mr..
Sprott's, on an acre of land he would
have made q fraction over 367 bushels.
The cowhorn, he says nearly doubled
in yield the rutabagss. Mr.. Sprott
gives this statement of the cost OF
making his turnips:
A half day with two hands to pre-
pare the ground and plant so
Guano S2.OU
Half day with two hands to plow
with scraper, thin turnips, and
SOW oats in every Sc cond turn
in row so
Hall day with two hands to bank
turnips .5o
Total $3.50
Mr.. Sprott believes, and from his
summing up of the cost of raising, he
proves, that turnip raising is a most
profitable crop. The oats which he
plants in his turnip patch must nearly
pay the cost of making and harvesting
the turnips and he makes good use OF
his turnips too. He says be feeds
them to his mich COWS and that they
prove most excellent food, besides
being a very profitable table
dish.
Mr.. Sprott's success in planting
turnips should induce more OF the
farmers of the county to give their at
tention to turnip raising. 1t seems
to be even cheaper crop than pota-
toes, and is just as good food for hogs
and better for mich COWS. They can
be kept in banks during the winter
equally as well.
